Consumerism and advertising

have us becoming so lazy

that sooner or later

we won't even have to leave the house.

   Entertainment is one of the biggest examples, we can get that sitting on our £700 sofa. A screen can get our heart racing and give us the thrill as if we are the one in the car chase, and not the man/woman in the movie.

   To get food into the house, we don't even have to go out of the house. We can simply order takeaway, or get supermarket food delivered straight to our door. Straight to our fridge door that is.

   We can socialise sat at a computer or on our mobile phones, and once again, we don't have to leave the house.

   If all of this already hasn't made us ill enough now not to be able to leave the house even if we wanted to, we could always call the doctor to us.

   We need to work for money to purchase the entertainment, the food, the devices on which to socialise, but that's ok, because we can always work from home nowadays.

   We can be educated from home studying, find the answers they want us to know by looking on the internet.

   Take a look around, this is the prison they have quietly created around us.

   Ok, so there's holidays, one reason to leave the house for the better. But even they are planned for you. Advertised so well that it must be what you want. Even if it wasn't what you wanted before you started looking.
 
   Go out there. Don't plan. Be free.
